BERNARDSVILLE, 42.4 miles (420 alt., 3,336 pop.), is a village of
one-story frame and brick buildings almost at the foot of MINE MT. Its
shopping center, plump in the middle of US 202 as it enters town from
the northeast, looks for all the world like a movie-set false front with the
wooded mountain towering sharply behind. Originally known as Vealtown, it was given its present name by Roderick Mitchell, who settled
here in 1840.
The winding, hilly road out of Bernardsville to the west commands a
long rolling vista (L) ; sudden clumps of pine rise out of the slope (R).
